Torino
Paolo Vanoli's side is struggling in Serie A, having suffered their third consecutive defeat in the last round, losing 2-3 away to Cagliari. This poor run marks the first time since the start of the 2022/23 season that the Bulls have endured such a streak.
Moreover, Torino's defensive issues have become increasingly evident, as they've conceded at least two goals in each of their last four matches. These setbacks have pushed the club down to 10th place in the Serie A standings, with 11 points after eight matches.
Como
Cesc Fàbregas’ team continues to show solid form, securing a 1-1 draw at home against Parma in the previous round. This result extended Como’s strong run, with the team remaining unbeaten in four of their last five matches (2 wins, 2 draws).
However, like Lazio, Como is among the two clubs in Serie A yet to keep a clean sheet this season. Currently, Fàbregas’ men sit in 14th place in the table, with 9 points after eight rounds.
Match Facts
- Torino have conceded more than one goal in only 1 of their last 9 home Serie A matches.
- Both teams have scored in Torino and Como’s last five matches in this season's competition.
- Five of Torino’s recent matches have seen over 2.5 goals.
Head-to-Head
The last time these teams faced each other was over 20 years ago, when Torino claimed two clean-sheet victories against Como in Serie B.
